20. Shift Workers

CHAPTER 20 SHIFT WORKERS Since today was an even numbered weekday, it was decided that Yesterday George and Yesterday Harold would go to school the next day. So the Yesterday boys said good-bye and headed down to their respective homes to eat, do homework, and prepare for the next day at school. George and Harold were ready for a night off. Harold grabbed a stack of comics, George turned on a monster movie, and the two friends settled into their beanbag chairs for some well-deserved R and R.

第二十章轮班工人由于今天是双数工作日，所以决定昨天的乔治和昨天的哈罗德第二天去上学。 于是，昨天的男孩们告别了，各自回家吃饭、做作业，为第二天的学校做准备。 乔治和哈罗德准备休息一晚。 哈罗德拿了一叠漫画书，乔治打开了一部怪兽电影，两个朋友坐在豆袋椅上，好好地休息了一下。

Fortunately, they had enough juice boxes, Zing Zong Cupcakes, and Fruit Rollie-Flops to last them for a while. Around 9:30 P.M., George called Piqua Pizza Palace and ordered two calzones, some cheesy breadsticks, and two 2-liter bottles of ice-cold root beer. The boys waited in George's driveway so the delivery guy wouldn't ring the doorbell.

幸运的是，他们有足够的果汁盒、Zing Zong纸杯蛋糕和水果罗利软糖来维持他们一段时间。 晚上9点半左右，乔治打电话给Piqua Pizza Palace，点了两个馅饼、一些芝士面包条和两瓶两升的冰镇沙士。 男孩们在乔治家的车道上等着，这样快递员就不会按门铃了。

Soon, the two friends were enjoying the finest carbohydrates money could buy, in the quiet comfort of their cozy tree house. "This is the life," said George, as he pressed "Play" on the horror movie masterpiece Baby Blob 2: The Squishening. Harold, who was usually cautious in situations like this, had to admit it: This was indeed the life.

很快，这两个朋友就在他们舒适的树屋里享受着钱能买到的最好的碳水化合物。 “这就是生活，”乔治一边说，一边按下恐怖电影巨作《宝贝斑点2：被压扁》的播放键。 哈罗德在这种情况下通常都很谨慎，他不得不承认：这才是真正的生活。
